Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 540: 188: Slap in the face, drunk Xiaxia (first update)
[Is anyone going to say something about Viola Thompson only filling out one college application?]

[I haven’t even received an invitation from Capital University. Damn, am I not worthy of commenting on this issue!]

[Is someone too overconfident?]

[Truly, I feel Viola is getting too full of herself!]

[I used to quite like Viola Thompson, but now I find that I’m liking her less and less. If she would have filled out more than one application, there would be no problems, but she chose to only submit one! She must think she’s really amazing, but she’s just underestimating Capital University!]

[…]

So many comments in many flavors.

There are those who support Viola.

And there are those who are waiting to see a joke.

When Sylvia Thompson stumbled upon this Facebook post, she squinted her eyes a little.

Immediately, she opened a web page to search for the news about Capital University’s re-examination.

It was only then that she realized that netizens weren’t exaggerating at all.

Capital University’s re-examination is indeed terrifying.

Even the leader of Country Polluton had failed the re-examination back in the day.

Until now, the leader of Country Polluton still jokes that his biggest regret in life is not becoming a member of Capital University.

It’s because Capital University has produced many leaders.

That’s why it’s also called ‘Presidential College.’

Anyone who receives an invitation to study at Capital University is not ordinary.

Viola…

Can she really pass the re-examination smoothly?

At this thought, Sylvia narrowed her eyes.

She looked at Edward Thompson, who was playing with his phone next to her, “Little Brother, have you seen the Facebook posts?”

“What happened?” Edward Thompson asked.

With a look of admiration, Sylvia replied, “My sister is really amazing! Little Brother, do you know? This is the first time I’ve heard that Capital University has an entrance re-examination!”

Hearing that, Edward Thompson opened Facebook.

He first checked the comments under the latest post habitually.

[Big brother, keep up the effort!]

[Big brother, I believe in the princess!]

[The princess can definitely pass the re-examination smoothly.]

[Give the princess a shoutout.]

[Big brother, don’t worry, we all believe in the princess. This time, we’ll be united with the princess!]

[…]

What do these comments mean?

Why would they bring up Viola Thompson out of the blue?

Edward Thompson clicked on the trending search page and read the interview. Only then did he understand what was going on.

Edward Thompson frowned slightly.

Overly glib.

He agreed with what netizens were saying – Viola was getting too cocky!

She got a perfect score and now she’s getting so full of herself that she can’t tell east from west.

It’s bad enough that Viola is so overconfident, but she never considers how her actions affect her family members!

If she can’t pass the re-examination, how should he explain it to his fans?!

The more Edward Thompson thought about it, the worse he felt, and he just wanted to sever his relationship with Viola immediately.

But at this critical moment, he dared not to act impulsively.

After all, his family hadn’t forgiven him yet.

Sylvia watched Edward Thompson’s expression calmly, then said, “Little Brother, do you think sister can pass the re-examination smoothly?”

“Have you ever heard of a famous saying?” Edward Thompson asked in return.

“What?” Sylvia asked.

Edward Thompson continued, “‘Lost among the common people.’”

A person becomes the center of attention because of their outstanding talent, but then they get too full of themselves and think they can do anything. In the end, their talent disappears, and they become worse than an ordinary person.

This saying is just perfect to describe Viola Thompson.

Sylvia smiled, “Little Brother, you don’t understand our sister at all. She’s a truly extraordinary person.”

Hearing this, Edward Thompson’s eyes were full of mockery.

Extraordinary?

Viola Thompson?!

Without a pause, Sylvia continued, “Little brother, try to understand our sister. You simply have too many prejudices against her. Even though you know she’s our parents’ favorite, you keep targeting her. It’s natural for our parents to dislike this. No matter what grievances you may have against our sister, you shouldn’t show it in front of our parents. Listen to me, little brother – if you really want our parents to forgive you, you should start pleasing our sister. Once she’s happy, there’ll be no issues with our parents, and you’ll be able to return home.”

Should he please Viola Thompson?!

Absolutely impossible!

Edward Thompson’s eyes were full of disgust, “I’ll please her in my next life!”

Hearing this, Sylvia sighed, “To be honest, little brother, I also think this isn’t entirely your fault. If I were my sister, regardless of who’s right or wrong, I would’ve taken the initiative to contact you. After all, you’re our older brother, our kin. Once we get married, you’ll be our backbone in our parents’ home. But our sister doesn’t seem to realize this.”
